Substitute Derrick Etienne Jr. scored his first goal of the season to put the New York Red Bulls ahead for good -- if only following a Video Review -- in an enthralling 3-2 victory over the LA Galaxy on Saturday afternoon at Red Bull Arena.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored his ninth goal and added an assist for the Galaxy, who turned an early deficit into a 2-1 lead during a four-minute stretch late in the first half.
But after Amro Tarek gave Red Bulls a deserved opener, Marc Rzatkowski finished off Conor Lade's feed to level affairs with a half-hour to play. Eight minutes later, Etienne capitalized on Daniel Royer's service for the winner over protestations over offsides from the Galaxy.
